Debt Counseling and Debt Relief – Find a Strong Debt Counselor to Help With Your Case

admin — Wed, 12 May 2010 13:00:00 +0000

If you’ve thought about settling your financial problems once and for all and living a debt free life, debt relief through debt counseling is a viable choice that will have you back on your feet in no time.

Your first step to finding a good counseling agency is to make sure they’re a member of National Foundation for Credit Counseling or the Association of Independent Credit Counseling Agencies. Make sure to check out their background with Better Business Bureau and see if they’ve received any complaints from past customers. There have been cases where consumers ended up with more debt after counseling or they were dragged into a lengthy debt management plan when the alternative could have been something as simple as a workable budget.

You can also check with your state attorney general’s office to see if there are any pending legal investigations against them. Be cautious of agencies that claim they’re non-profit, as most of these could “persuade” you to make a donation to their cause or charge hidden fees. Offering their services for free doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll do a good job for you.

A strong counselor will carefully analyze your financial situation and then present you with your the best option for debt relief. They can re-negotiate loan terms and interest rates with your creditors, and will openly discuss their fees with you or tell you more about the services they offer. Be wary of counselors that rush their decisions or that pressure you into quick decisions. You will only end up in more debt than when you started.
Whether through debt management plans or something just as simple as financial advice, a good debt counselor can help you a great deal with your debt difficulties.

National Debt Relief Program Initiative

Consumers struggling with a high debt burden are reminded that research is required before enrolling in any debt relief program. While there are hundreds of legitimate companies that can help individuals eliminate their debt, there are also plenty of scams circulating within the industry which should be avoided. Before enrolling in any program it is important to investigate the company and the process they claim to use to eliminate debt. Here we are going to take a closer look at a potential scam that has cost some consumers hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

What is the National Debt Relief Program Scam?

It appears many consumers have received a letter in the mail claiming to be from the National Debt Relief Program. Victims of this scam have stated the letter at first glance appears to be from a government agency. Upon closer inspection it becomes clear the letter is not from a government agency but rather GHS Solutions, a debt settlement company. Jennifer Wallis is a Consumer Credit Counseling Service employee in central Oklahoma. She has clients who have received this letter which states the National Debt Relief Program can “reduce monthly payments by up to 50 percent”. Why is this letter considered a scam? Since the letter is designed to look like correspondence from a government agency, many consumers fail to realize it is actually from a debt settlement company. The information is misleading and many consumers who are desperate for a solution to their debt problem may enroll in a program that can have serious negative consequences.

GHS Solutions is a debt settlement company based in Delray Beach, Florida. The Better Business Bureau has given the company a F rating and reports 102 consumer complaints in the past three years. Of the 102 total complaints against the company, 88 are about the company agreeing to perform according to their contract.

GHS Solutions is not the only debt settlement company linked to the National Debt Relief Program scam. It appears consumers have also complained about a company named National Debt Relief and the program they offer to consumers. In this instance consumers have actually enrolled in the program and claim the company did not perform as promised. Clients claim National Debt Relief failed to stop collection calls and did not begin negotiating debt immediately. Other complaints claim the company misrepresents itself to appear like a government agency which leads consumers to believe they are working with a government program designed to assist individuals facing financial hardships.

It is important for all consumers to understand what type of debt relief program they are committing to before moving forward. Debt settlement is a legal process where individuals or companies hired on their behalf, negotiate with creditors to reduce delinquent balances in order to eliminate debt. Anyone considering this process must thoroughly research both the method and any company they consider hiring. There are several risks involved in the process however it can be the best option for people facing a serious financial hardship who would otherwise have to look toward bankruptcy to address their debt situation. It is unfortunate that some debt settlement companies continue to mislead or misrepresent themselves in order to enroll clients in their programs. Consumers are urged to carefully read any correspondence as well as contracts prior to enrolling in a debt settlement program to avoid confusion and disappointment down the road.

Government Grants – Hassle Free Option For Debt Relief

admin — Fri, 07 May 2010 01:50:48 +0000

Government grants as an option of debt relief is not very popular. This is basically due to the lack of awareness amongst the people. Every year billions of dollars are kept aside for the purpose of giving away as government grants. People do not opt for these grants for debt relief because they think that either these grants are not available to individuals or they are not eligible to apply for the same.

Why Government Gives Grants For Debt Relief

When people are debt ridden, their expenditure decreases. This reduces the demand for various things in the economy because people will not have money to spend. Slowly this affects all areas of the economy, with the result that the economy of the state / nation suffers. Therefore it is imperative that the people have enough spending capacity so that the economy prospers.

Debt Relief With Government Grants

Government grants are more easily available than other forms of loans. This is because grants unlike loans do not require collateral or any other form of security. These thousands of dollars got as grants can be used for starting a new business, the proceeds from which can be used to clear off previous debts.

Grants are also available for clearing off debts incurred due to specific reasons like health care, education, business expenses etc. For e.g. a debt incurred for health care purposes like hospitalisation, medical bills, etc. can be cleared with the help of government grants. Debts incurred for setting up a business can also be funded using government grants. This makes government grant an ideal debt relief instrument.

Are grants easily available?

Grants are easily available to those people who can prove to the government that they are not in a position to pay off their debts. The social service office elaborately studies the financial position, outstanding debts and repayment capability of the debtor before issuing the grant. This is to ensure that the grant is going to the extremely needy people who have no other means to salvage their debt ridden situation.

Advantages Of Availing Government Grants For Debt Relief

1. A grant is easily available because no collateral is required to be got for it. The debtor just has to prove that he is not in a position to pay off his debts.

2. A grant is an aid from the government. It is not a loan. Hence it need not be paid back. It is both interest-free and non-taxable. It is given with the sole purpose of getting the finances of the debtor back on track, thereby making him debt-free subsequently.

3. With the availability of government grants for debt relief the debtors are saved from declaring bankruptcy.

4. Grants in comparison with other form of debt relief are a better option because they make the debtor debt free instantly.

Government grants are therefore an ideal debt relief option for those debtors who have no other option but to declare bankruptcy.

Definition of Credit vs Debt

admin — Sat, 01 May 2010 06:36:20 +0000

It’s easy to get the terms credit & debt confused. They seem to be interchangeable, however they are two different words with two different meanings.

Definition of Credit

Credit is a financial tool that people seek to acquire from financial institutions. Canadian Banks, credit unions, credit card companies all offer credit to their customers in Canada.

I call credit the “before” part of the equation. You have to have credit before you have debt.

Credit offers come in many different forms.
Mortgages and 2nd mortgages Car loans Payday loans Credit cards Lines of credit There a many other types of credit which I won’t list here

Here’s where people get confused about Credit / Debt.

There are two types of credit available.

Fixed loans Revolving credit

Mortgages and car loans are fix payment loans Lines of credit and credit cards are revolving credit.

Canadian Mortgages and car loans are only credit that are available to you. That means that once you acquire a mortgage or car loan it becomes a debt to you. A mortgage or car loan is never credit to you.

HERE’S WHY:

Where you ‘re shopping for a $250,000 mortgage, you’re looking for credit to buy your new house. You’re shopping for credit at this point.

When you visit your local banker or mortgage broker in Canada you’re doing the following:

Asking the creditors to give you some credit. You’re applying for credit You need to be a approved for credit. Creditors check out your credit worthiness, credit score, credit reports etc.

These are all the activities you do BEFORE you get the credit that you’re requesting.
Credit cards and lines of credit on the other hand can be BOTH credit and debt.

HERE’S WHY

Let’s say you have a credit card with a $5000 limit. At the beginning you have $5000 worth of credit available to you. After a while of using your credit card, you use up $1,000 worth of credit available. That $1,000 of used credit now becomes debt.

BEFORE: $5,000 credit available

AFTER: $4,000 credit still available $1,000 debt owing

This is probably why people in Canada get the terms credit & debt confused. People don’t usually need credit counselling, they need debt counselling. They counselling after they’ve acquired too much debt. ( I guess people could use credit counselling which would help them learn about how they can wisely use their credit that is still available. )

YOU NEVER HAVE TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON CREDIT!!

As I always like to say, “you NEVER have to make payments on your credit available. Credit available DOESN’T ruin marriages. The creditors DON’T make any money on credit available.

You do have to make payments on outstanding debts, or debt that you’ve incurred. Too much debt does ruin marriages, and Canadian creditors love it when you’re indebted to them. That is how they make their money.

Credit / Debt? Debt / Credit?

There is alot of credit available to consumers in Canada. It’s big business. The problem is when Canadians take on too much of that credit which becomes their debt burden.

I hope that this post helps you better understand the difference between credit & debt and how these terms affect your personal finances.
